I don't know if I don't know how to read, or if I just get an idea in my head and go with it, hoping it's okay. Happy Little Stampers challenge is Sprays/Mists and I knew what I wanted to do. When I went to the site to post the card I noticed it's supposed to be CAS and that means lots of white space. Sorry, it doesn't have much. It's simple and fairly clean, and even a one layer card, not something I do often.
The stamp is from Penny Black that I colored with Inktense Pencils, then covered with rubber cement. I masked the sentiment area and used my Tim Holtz marker sprayer to spritz the background. The sentiment is also from PB. It's a little warped because I haven't attached it to the card base yet. I do that sometimes until I know what inside sentiment I want to use. Those are printed on the computer.
You won't see any cards from me for a while (well, one, but that's a secret for now) since I'm off to spend two weeks with my grandchildren while their parents are away. To keep my hand in, I will be playing with my Zig Clear Brush Pens. I'll also be making a baby quilt for a soon to be great-granddaughter. I will be lounging around the pool catching up with all of you, though, so keep those cards a comin'!

I don't often do one layer cards but thought I'd give it a try for Less Is More this week. We're also to include splatters. Now spatters I can do. ;)
Using my NBUS Tim Holtz Flower Garden, I stamped the stem in Peeled Paint, the flower in Memento London Fog and watercolored with Distress Inks. Then I covered the entire flower in rubber cement. Once dry, I went around the flower with Frayed Burlap, also using it to splatter and stamp the sentiment from Penny Black. Finally I rubbed off the rubber cement. I love this daisy stamp. I think I'll be doing this again with some different backgrounds.
